Hello, At the moment Google does not supply historical data for indexes in "spreadsheet" format.
Only symbols that have "Download to spreadsheet" link available on Google site can be used with AmiQuote. See this: http://finance.google.com/finance/historical?q=NASDAQ:CSCO (Download to spreadsheet link present) As compared with: http://finance.google.com/finance/historical?q=INDEXDJX:.DJI (Download to spreadsheet link absent) Best regards, Tomasz Janeczko amibroker.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "areehoi" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, April 23, 2008 5:37 PM Subject: [amibroker] Re: AmiQuote 2.00 released > Great work Tomasz.
